The A1 Metroproject Quattro Concept is a Hybrid Concept Car It features a new varation on Audi’s established Quattro technology. The Audi quattro four-wheel drive system is usually a traditional one engine driving all four wheels system. In at A1 the 1.4-litre turbo petrol engine only powers the front wheels - It provides 148bhp. Under the boot/trunk floor there is a 40bhp electric motor, driving the rear wheels.

The rear motor delivers an extra 148lb ft of torque. Enough to propel what is supposedly an environmentally friendly city-car concept to 65mph in 7.8 seconds. The electric motor can also power the Audi A1 Metroproject entirely on its own at urban speeds, with a range of up to 65 miles wih lithium-ion batteries. As with all hybrids the only real downside is the weight penalty; the set-up adds aproximatly 70kg to the Metroproject’s overall weight.
